Highs today will reach the 60s, but it is misleading because we won’t hit our high until just before midnight. Therefore, generally cool through the afternoon (40s, 50s) before a warm front lifts through this evening. The approaching warm front will bring showers and a few rumbles of thunder this morning. Nothing severe, but rain will move in from the south. Looking at a break from the rain or scattered chance midday, followed by a severe risk this evening.
Severe Threat Tonight
Additional rounds of showers and thunderstorms are likely this evening and overnight (after 8PM) west to east. Highest chances for strong to severe storms will be west of I-75/US-23, but the slight (level two) risk has been stretched a littler farther east towards Detroit. All threats are on the table (damaging wind gusts, isolated tornado and large hail).
Good Friday/Opening Day
A warm and breezy Friday is on tap. Whether you are heading to the Tigers Home Opener or services for Good Friday, you can plan for temperatures to rise into the upper 60s. There is a chance for rain before sunrise and after sunset, but we should spend the daylight hours under partly cloudy skies.
Saturday Showers
We remain warm with highs still around 70 degrees, but another low lifts through the Great Lakes Saturday supporting additional showers and a few thunderstorms.
Easter Sunday
Sharply cooler (40s and breezy) on Easter Sunday into early next week with a few additional showers, so plan for a cooler morning egg hunt with temperatures in the upper 30s on Sunday morning.
